Publisher's Description
Evangelism doesn't have to be frustrating or intimidating. Bill Hybels and Mark Mittelberg believe that effectively communicating our faith in Christ should be the most natural thing in the world. We just need encouragement and direction. In Becoming a Contagious Christian, Hybels and Mittelberg articulate the central principles that have helped the believers at Willow Creek Community Church become a church known around the world for its outstanding outreach to unchurched people. Based on the words of Jesus and flowing from the firsthand experiences of the authors, Becoming a Contagious Christian is a groundbreaking, personalized approach to relational evangelism. You will discover your own natural evangelism style, how to develop a contagious Christian character, to build spiritually strategic relationships, to direct conversations toward matters of faith, and to share biblical truths in everyday language. This landmark book presents a blueprint for starting a spiritual epidemic of hope and enthusiasm for spreading the Gospel.

I have been trying recently to create a window class using the Windows API in C++. However, whenever I attempt to call ShowWindow, the function sets the last error to 1400 (ERROR_INVALID_WINDOW_HANDLE). After trying for a while, I stumbled across the following example: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2005/04/22/410773.aspx#comments
Even creating a new project (I use MSVC Express 2008) and copying the code exactly (which I hate to do), I discovered that, while the code successfully created a window, the ShowWindow function still reported error 1400. Here is an excerpt from the code found at the above link:
int PASCAL
WinMain(HINSTANCE hinst, HINSTANCE, LPSTR, int nShowCmd)
g_hinst = hinst;
if (SUCCEEDED(CoInitialize(NULL))) {
RootWindow *prw = RootWindow::Create();
if (prw) {
ShowWindow(prw->GetHWND(), nShowCmd);
int error = GetLastError(); //Line added by me, error gets set to 1400.
MSG msg;
while (GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0)) {
return 0;
(The full code can be found at the above link)
If anyone has any ideas on how to have the window handle as a member variable of a class without receiving error 1400 on ShowWindow, I would greatly appreciate some help.

Sustaining life : how human health depends on biodiversity by Eric Chivian ( Book )
3 editions published in 2008 in English and held by 1,758 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
From the Publisher: The Earth's biodiversity-the rich variety of life on our planet-is disappearing at an alarming rate. And while many books have focused on the expected ecological consequences, or on the aesthetic, ethical, sociological, or economic dimensions of this loss, Sustaining Life is the first book to examine the full range of potential threats that diminishing biodiversity poses to human health. Edited and written by Harvard Medical School physicians Eric Chivian and Aaron Bernstein, along with more than 100 leading scientists who contributed to writing and reviewing the book, Sustaining Life presents a comprehensive-and sobering-view of how human medicines, biomedical research, the emergence and spread of infectious diseases, and the production of food, both on land and in the oceans, depend on biodiversity. The book's ten chapters cover everything from what biodiversity is and how human activity threatens it to how we as individuals can help conserve the world's richly varied biota. Seven groups of organisms, some of the most endangered on Earth, provide detailed case studies to illustrate the contributions they have already made to human medicine, and those they are expected to make if we do not drive them to extinction. Drawing on the latest research, but written in language a general reader can easily follow, Sustaining Life argues that we can no longer see ourselves as separate from the natural world, nor assume that we will not be harmed by its alteration. Our health, as the authors so vividly show, depends on the health of other species and on the vitality of natural ecosystems. With a foreword by E.O. Wilson and a prologue by Kofi Annan, and more than 200 poignant color illustrations, Sustaining Life contributes essential perspective to the debate over how humans affect biodiversity and a compelling demonstration of the human health costs

This report presents the findings of a study of enterprise-based training in Malaysia ' s manufacturing sector which was jointly sponsored by the World Bank, the United Nations Development Programme, and the Economic Planning Unit, a Malaysian government agency. Using data from a survey of 2,200 companies, the study investigates the incidence and productivity outcomes of employer-sponsored training in in-house company programs and from external training providers, and the role of government policies and incentives in encouraging private sector training. The study also looks more broadly at technology in firms, their use of quality control systems, and the skill requirements associated with the use of new technology and organizational change. The report concludes that while some firms, especially the larger, more technologically progressive ones and the multinational companies do provide training, in general, most Malaysian firms underinvest in employee training. It documents the primacy of the private sector

It advocates a mix of carbon taxation, more stringent cap-and-trade programmes, energy regulation, and international cooperation on financing for low-carbon technology transfer. Turning to adaptation, the report warns that inequalities in ability to cope with climate change are emerging as an increasingly powerful driver of wider inequalities between and within counties.

Clifford Chance is charged with sealing Brobeck's fate" />It has been a threat that has hovered over the West Coast for the longest time. But last week, the remnants of Brobeck Phleger & Harrison, the 77-year-old institution that ignominiously collapsed in February, finally fired a poison-tipped arrow at Clifford Chance.
In a searing complaint filed on 8 October, first revealed on www.thelawyer. com last week, staff and partners from the now-deceased firm threw a barrage of claims at Clifford Chance and Brobeck's former chairman Tower Snow.
Both are charged with starting the rot that finally enveloped the firm, forcing it to close its doors on Valentine's Day this year.
"We expect it will be a ferocious fight," Mark Lanier, name partner of the Houston firm acting for the plaintiffs told The Lawyer.
Seeking $100m (£60.1m) in damages is a collection of 11 retired partners, seven employees and trustees of the Brobeck Phleger & Harrison Claim Liquidation Trust, which represents scores of former partners and staff. The claims of a conspiracy are breathtaking in their range: breach of fiduciary duty, unfair competition, intentional interference with prospective business advantage and tortious interference with a contract.
For its part, Clifford Chance and Snow are vehemently denying the claims.
Clifford Chance said in a statement: "We have undertaken an initial review of the allegations in the complaint. The allegations are without merit. We find the notion that Clifford Chance is responsible for the collapse of Brobeck Phleger & Harrison to be absurd. We believe we acted appropriately in our dealings with Brobeck and with the former Brobeck partners who joined Clifford Chance. We will defend ourselves vigorously against this complaint."
The plaintiffs claim that it was Snow's act of leading a 16-partner team of securities litigation partners to Clifford Chance in May 2002 that triggered the firm's collapse. The claim alleges: "They were directly exposing Brobeck to a default in its loan agreements, which Snow had personally negotiated on Brobeck's behalf. During a period of rapid expansion under Snow's leadership when Brobeck became highly leveraged, Snow specifically negotiated loan agreements which provided for default if 15 per cent of the partners left the firm.
"Snow and Clifford Chance understood, thereby, that if they were successful in convincing a large group of partners to move to Clifford Chance, they would trigger defaults under the loan agreements."
The detailed allegations also purport to surmise the run-up to the defections, stating that Snow, who served as chairman from 1998 to November 2001, was "disaffected" after resigning. On 11 January 2002, Snow made contact with James Benedict, managing partner for the Americas at Clifford Chance, offering to open a San Francisco office for the UK firm, "with 50 to 175 Brobeck lawyers, few of whom had been informed of, let alone consented to this offer".
Clifford Chance apparently knew that through such actions Snow was breaching his fiduciary duties.
In a parting shot, the suit, which is demanding a trial by jury, says "the misconduct" of Clifford Chance and Snow led the firm to suffer economic damages. These include: loss of Brobeck's business, loss of good will, loss of the value of its trade secrets proprietary and confidential information, damage to its good will and reputation in the community, among others. And as a result of these losses, the firm met its end.
Clifford Chance and Brobeck have been locked in mediation for months in the hope of retrieving former partners' capital in the defunct firm.
Ironically, it was only five months ago that Brobeck found itself on the receiving end of similar allegations.
Nearly eight years ago Brobeck took on Debra Pole and William Fitzgerald from Dickson Carlson & Campillo, who brought with them Baxter Healthcare, a major client of the firm. When the firm later went out of business, it filed a suit against Pole, Fitzgerald and Brobeck. The jury found some misconduct in the case, awarding damages of $153,688 (£92,331).
But with the boot now on the other foot, Brobeck is going for the jugular with its $100m claim.
"A case like this, against a law firm of the size and reputation of Clifford Chance and a lawyer with the reputation of Snow, is not filed lightly," said Lanier.

Cedar Creek fix to cost almost $3 million, officials learn
The nearly $3 million required to fix stormwater drainage issues in Cedar Creek would likely have to come out of residents' pockets, Lake Zurich officials learned at a recent board meeting.
The board heard the results of a study commissioned last year after heavy June rains flooded residents' basements and brought the issue to the forefront.
While officials at the time called the flood a once-in-a-lifetime event, Manhard Consulting recently presented nine ways to pay for the fix, which is estimated to cost $2.95 million.
The study suggested that the Cedar Creek detention area be deepened — and cut off from the flow of water from an Old Mill Grove reservoir, which would also be made larger — in order to allow it to handle a similar 100-year storm in the future. Currently, the basin can take on water from a 10-year storm in a 24-hour period.
In a given year, there is a 1 percent chance of a 100-year storm occurring and a 10 percent chance that a 10-year storm will strike.
Lake Zurich board members extensively discussed two ideas for paying for the upgrades: the creation of a special service area for the approximate 800 parcels of land served by the Cedar Creek detention area or a stormwater fee for all residents.
Village Manager Jason Slowinski said the tax — which could be based off of the amount of impervious area on each homeowner's property — could eventually go toward fixing other stormwater infrastructure problems in the future, once Cedar Creek's issue was addressed.
But many trustees shot down the idea as unacceptable, noting the board approved a new gas and electric tax earlier in the meeting that is estimated to generate $1.2 million in revenue once the whole 5 percent rate is in effect for a full year.
"I am adamantly opposed to putting another taxation on residents to fund this," Trustee Jim Beaudoin said.
Trustee Jeff Halen also said that with some other Lake Zurich subdivisions already paying an additional cost on their property taxes to fund their own special service areas, a village-wide utility fee would mean some folks would be paying up to three times the amount of other residents.
Trustees also learned that doubling the town's non-home-rule sales tax to 1 percent would provide an additional $4 million in revenue, but officials expressed concerns at how the funds from the original sales tax implementation were handled.
Slowinski also said if the town were to go to referendum asking residents to become a home-rule community, other funding sources might be an option, including a per-gallon gasoline tax that he said could generate millions of dollars for the community.
Other options, including taking money from the town's already-decreasing fund balance or implementing a vehicle sticker fee, were shot down by board members.
Ultimately, trustees seemed to agree that a special service area would be the best way to go.
The Manhard study estimated that for a special service area, the 800 homes identified as being served by the Cedar Creek detention facility would pay $184 per year for 20 years — a total of $3,687 — to cover the cost of the project.
Trustee Jonathan Sprawka said the $187 annual charge would likely be less than the premium for flood insurance.
A number of trustees said whatever the board decided, the money should be earmarked for the specific purpose of Cedar Creek infrastructure improvements.
The initial funds would likely come from a bond issuance, officials said, in order to make the fix as soon as possible, with those bonds being repaid through the preferred option over 20 years.
In the meantime, Beaudoin said more frequent inspections could ensure the basin is draining properly. This year, $125,000 was budgeted for continued engineering and design of the fix, Slowinski said.
Moving forward, Mayor Tom Poynton said the board would consider the options, as well as feedback from residents, and come back with a more detailed report at a future meeting.
"I think the intent at this point in time is to get feedback not only from the stakeholders in Cedar Creek, number one, but also to open the discussion amongst the village board and start narrowing down the options (that) are more comfortable, and which are not realistic at all," Slowinski said.

IMHO those were the worst uniforms ever. Just awful. "Stanford fan" is correct. The names were 'unreadable' Stanford tried all black last year- another big mistake also. This year it looked like the team ran through a barrage of catsup. Toss 'em.

FreeBSD Moves Along On ARM Support
Published on 01 January 2013 05:04 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
2 Comments
While Linux continues to move along quite briskly on ARM hardware support and already has
64-bit ARM AArch64 support
, that's not the case in the BSD world. With FreeBSD, they're still working on bringing up ARMv6 support and pulling in support for the different ARM SoCs/boards.
There's a new
blog post
from this weekend going over the FreeBSD ARMv6 support state. Various FreeBSD ARM issues were overcome in 2012 and they open-source OS has also progressed on switching to EABI and enabling LLVM/Clang compiler support for ARM rather than relying upon GCC.
In 2012, FreeBSD was also brought into a working state on the popular Raspberry Pi development board. The OMAP4 PandaBoard is another ARM platform working reliably now with FreeBSD on ARMv6 (not ARMv7).
For now the FreeBSD developers working on ARM enablement are seeking out stability and performance out of currently-supported platforms before expanding onto other ARM tasks. "First - experimental and unstable state of FreeBSD/armv6 in general. It's no fun adding new hardware support when you're not confident in underlying subsystems stability. "I flush cache for this TX descriptor but is it really gets flushed?". Been there, no fun at all. That's why I believe task #1 for nearest future is maximum performance and rock-solid stability of what we have."
The developers for now also aren't looking at GPU/graphics support on ARM. "Fix these two issues should make bring-up process easier. It leaves us with question of GPU support. But it's different story for different post..." This isn't a huge surprise and likely will not see any progress for years with it not being until
the release of FreeBSD 9.1
days ago that there was even Intel DRM/KMS driver support and there's still no Nouveau/Radeon DRM driver ported to FreeBSD mainline.

Maryland business owners might be interested to learn about special circumstances when a breach of contract does not require a remedy. In general, a party who was involved in a contract that was breached by another party would be entitled to claim remedies for the material breach. However, the aggrieved party may waive its right to receive remedies in some instances.
One way that remedies for a breach of contract are waived is through a mutual agreement by both parties to the contract. After the breach occurs, the party making the breach and the aggrieved party may sign an agreement that assures no claim will arise as a result of the breach.

Tip of the Day August 26
Ask what your child thinks of school—some have a strong attachment, while others feel uncomfortable or unattached. Ask your son or daughter which part of school is his or her favorite. (Don't be surprised if your children answer "recess" or "lunch.")
Tip of the Day August 25
Find out if there is another adult who has connected well with your own child. Have they bonded over sports? Do they like the same music? If you can afford it, buy them tickets to attend an event together.
Tip of the Day August 24
Be ready for unexpected moments of connection. When your child or another young person starts to talk about something personal, drop everything to pay attention.
Tip of the Day August 23
Bring your child and one of his or her friends to a museum, concert, or another cultural event that welcomes children.
Tip of the Day August 22
Remain firm about your expectations as your kids grow, but expect bumps along the way. As kids change schools, go through puberty, and cope with difficulty, their enthusiasm for school and doing well can wane. Be patient but continue to have high expectations.
Tip of the Day August 21
Think of your teenager as an adult in training. Teach him or her practical things like how to change a tire, prepare a meal, or create a monthly budget.
Tip of the Day August 20
Give children freedom to make their own choices (as appropriate for their age) so that they feel they have some control over their lives.
Tip of the Day August 19
Set clear expectations about how you want your child to do in school. This isn't about putting undue pressure on your child. Instead, it's about expecting your child to do as well as he or she can.
Tip of the Day August 18
Talk about the value of education. Even if school isn't always easy, that doesn't mean that it's not important. Emphasize how working hard at school will help your kids succeed.

Jamaica's Elections
The Portia Simpson-Miller led People's National Party (PNP) is back in office in Jamaica, having won the December29 parliamentary election by the impressive margin of 41 seats to 22. Early reports are that nearly one-half of the eligible electors did not vote; and that the PNP secured 53 percent of the popular vote. If these reports are correct, the PNP"s 65 percent of seats in Parliament is based on the votes of only 27 percent of Jamaica's qualified electors. As some commentators have observed , this points to a substantial 'participation deficit' in Jamaica's governance and 'confidence deficit' in Jamaica's democracy. The new Administration will ignore this only at its peril.
The immediate challenge facing the new government is the economy—specifically, the IMF. The latest agreement has been off-track for most of the last year; the government has no choice but to re-establish it in order to access badly needed funds. The room to manoeuvre is limited. A fresh austerity package is a virtual certainty. The IMF will also demand credible assurances on policy and institutional reforms; that went awry under the previous government. The PNP government will strive to extract concessions to soften the blow, notably the jobs programme that was the centrepiece of its election manifesto. But the package as a whole is likely to be deflationary rather than growth-promoting. And getting sustainable growth remains the number one challenge for Jamaica. This will be the litmus test of the government's economic performance.
What about Caricom? The PNP's victory will probably be welcomed in the region. Traditionally, the PNP is seen as Cari-for; the JLP, as Cari-sceptic. But we need action, not image. On the agenda must be Jamaica's huge trade deficit with Trinidad and Tobago–a festering sore on the body of Caricom relations. 'Portia' and 'Kamla' should address this as a matter of priority. Can they succeed where their male counterparts have failed?
Besides, the CCJ and the CSME are languishing. Prime Minister Simpson-Miller has to find the political skills to take Jamaica fully into the Caribbean Court of Justice. Will Jamaica's 50th Independence anniversary party in August 2012 find British Privy Councillors still sitting in final judgement? After all, she is on record as wanting a Jamaican Queen!
And speaking of Queens, when is Jamaica going to get rid of the ridiculous anachronism of having the British monarch as the Jamaican head of state? Does Mrs. Simpson-Miller's declaration, made in the heat of an election debate, reflect a subconscious desire to be installed as the first President of the Republic of Jamaica; presiding triumphantly over the Independence celebrations?
Some would view this is as an unlikely scenario. An Executive Presidency has never been supported by the JLP. And I can't quite imagine Mrs. Simpson-Miller as a purely ceremonial head, devoid of real power. Besides, 'Sister P', as she is affectionately known to her supporters, is already a queen in their eyes.
Still, who knows? Any scenario can play!

Their batsmen impressed, but it was their fast bowlers, Tino Best and Fidel Edwards, who were instrumental in undoing Bangladesh
Garth Wattley
November 25, 2012
Related Links
Players/Officials: Tino Best | Fidel Edwards | Darren Bravo | Shivnarine Chanderpaul | Kieran Powell | Marlon Samuels
Matches: Bangladesh v West Indies at Khulna
Series/Tournaments: West Indies tour of Bangladesh
Teams: Bangladesh | West Indies
Scoreboard pressure is a term you hear in the game these days. When Bangladesh's openers went out to start their second innings knowing they were already 261 runs in deficit, that pressure must have been heavy upon them. And the West Indies fast bowlers did not ease up.
For all the runs the West Indian batsmen scored in the two Test matches, it's the performance of their pace bowlers that has been striking. Tino Best's five-wicket second-innings burst won the Mirpur Test for his team, and in Khulna, he was joined by Fidel Edwards in wiping away Bangladesh's resistance.
While competent against spin, the Bangladesh batsmen find good fast bowling unsettling. Even on the placid pitches they know well, they were unable to deal with what the West Indian quicks served up.
Two bowlers who started this tour on the fringes of the first team had ensured that for the second series in succession, and for the first time overseas in ten years, West Indies achieved a clean sweep. Darren Sammy's team did it the old West Indian way.
Best and Edwards are anything but fresh new finds. Plucked from the nets by Brian Lara and thrown into Test cricket in 2003, Edwards was playing his 55th Test in Khulna, and now with 165 wickets has proved the most durable bowler since the era of Courtney Walsh and Curtly Ambrose ended 11 years ago. Best, afflicted more by his mercurial nature and form rather than injury as in the case of Edwards, also started in 2003, but was playing only his 18th Test in Khulna.
Had Kemar Roach been fit for the series and Ravi Rampaul not suffered groin problems, neither Edwards nor Best would have been on the field. But they seized their chances.
Edwards, sometimes inconsistent and expensive with his slinging action, but always a bowler of great heart and aggression, took six wickets in the first innings in Khulna, with his quick, full-pitched style, making up for the absence of the hamstrung Best after lunch on the first day. Despite Abul Hasan's startling debut century, Bangladesh had been contained to what proved to be an inadequate 387 in the conditions.
The relentless scoring of Marlon Samuels, Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Darren Bravo gave Sammy and his fellow bowlers a substantial lead to defend. They could bowl with freedom.
Even though he could not go flat out, Best was amazingly effective. The fact that he took to the field at all was a surprise, but used as the fourth bowler, he was the one who sent Bangladesh into decline. He proved once more that, first and foremost, fast bowling is a state of mind.
|Like the great Essequibo River in his native Guyana, there seems no stopping Chanderpaul's flow these days
Sheer pace and a loose technique removed Tamim Iqbal, inswing deceived Naeem Islam, and a pinpoint bouncer had Shahriar Nafees fending to the slips - all in Best's first three overs. His stump-to-stump accuracy brought him three more wickets on the final day and produced a new career-best - 6 for 40.
The new maturity of Best, the way he has harnessed himself since returning to international cricket this year, has been refreshing. His contribution and Edwards' better form have meant that the West Indies bench has not been just making up the numbers, as has often been the case.
Their success counterbalanced the failure of Sunil Narine to have an impact on the series. Good teams get contributions when needed. Veerasammy Permaul played his part with eight useful wickets in the two Tests, the biggest one being Shakib Al Hasan's in the final over on the penultimate afternoon in Khulna.
The batsmen also shared the workload. Samuels, so driven to succeed, so steady in concentration and excellent in his strokeplay, took over from Kieran Powell - who scored two hundreds in Mirpur - with his 260. Then Chanderpaul and Bravo's tons gave their bowlers a platform from which to win the game.
Grinding out runs is Chanderpaul's stock in trade. And he was as resolute and as immovable as ever in getting single and double-centuries in consecutive Tests and averaging over 350 in the series. Like the great Essequibo River in his native Guyana, there seems no stopping his flow these days.
But the patience that Chanderpaul's more naturally flamboyant team-mates showed in building their innings in this series was even more impressive.
So Sammy's side did what was expected, but they did so in convincing style. Making sweeping statements based on a single series or even two is risky, especially on behalf of West Indies. Those rubbers have been against the two teams below them in the rankings. But it is fair to say that West Indies' cricket since the England tour in July has been increasingly confident and cohesive, even when bad habits resurfaced.
Despite the sudden slump in the second innings in Mirpur, they came up with the appropriate response to win by 77 runs. When Bangladesh rallied from 193 for 8 to make 387 in this second Test, the bowling response was emphatic.
Coach Ottis Gibson, a former seamer himself, must be a fairly contented man these days. His boys are picking up the pace.
